Monopole Excitation to Cluster States
We discuss strength of monopole excitation of the ground state to cluster
states in light nuclei. We clarify that the monopole excitation to cluster
states is in general strong as to be comparable with the single particle
strength and shares an appreciable portion of the sum rule value in spite of
large difference of the structure between the cluster state and the
shell-model-like ground state. We argue that the essential reasons of the large
strength are twofold. One is the fact that the clustering degree of freedom is
possessed even by simple shell model wave functions. The detailed feature of
this fact is described by the so-called Bayman-Bohr theorem which tells us that
SU(3) shell model wave function is equivalent to cluster model wave function.
The other is the ground state correlation induced by the activation of the
cluster degrees of freedom described by the Bayman-Bohr theorem. We
demonstrate, by deriving analytical expressions of monopole matrix elements,
that the order of magnitude of the monopole strength is governed by the first
reason, while the second reason plays a sufficient role in reproducing the data
up to the factor of magnitude of the monopole strength. Our explanation is made
by analysing three examples which are the monopole excitations to the
and states in O and the one to the state in C.
The present results imply that the measurement of strong monopole transitions
or excitations is in general very useful for the study of cluster states.Comment: 11 pages, 1 figure: revised versio
On the Genus Expansion in the Topological String Theory
A systematic formulation of the higher genus expansion in topological string
theory is considered. We also develop a simple way of evaluating genus zero
correlation functions. At higher genera we derive some interesting formulas for
the free energy in the and models. We present some evidence that
topological minimal models associated with Lie algebras other than the A-D-E
type do not have a consistent higher genus expansion beyond genus one. We also
present some new results on the model at higher genera.Comment: 36 pages, phyzzx, UTHEP-27
